Network Switch Ubiquiti USW-PRO-MAX-48-POE 24 Ports 2.5G Ethernet

The Ubiquiti USW-PRO-MAX-48-POE is a Layer 3 network switch featuring 24 RJ‑45 ports with 2.5G Ethernet speeds and four SFP+ slots for 10G uplinks. The switch provides a switching capacity of 224 Gbit/s, supports Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE++), and is designed for deployment in high-performance wired networks where multi-gigabit access and PoE power delivery are required.

Advantages

This switch combines multi-gigabit 2.5G RJ‑45 ports with 10G SFP+ uplinks, offering high throughput and flexible connectivity. With Layer 3 capabilities and PoE++ support, it can power connected devices while handling advanced routing and switching tasks. The metal, grey chassis and solid build suit rack installations in enterprise or campus network environments.

Suitable for

• Small to medium enterprise access and aggregation
• Office and campus deployments requiring multi‑gigabit ports
• Powering PoE devices such as IP cameras, access points and VoIP phones
• Network segments needing 10G uplinks via SFP+

How to use

Install the switch in a standard equipment rack and connect uplink modules in the SFP+ slots to your aggregation or core switches. Connect endpoints to the 2.5G RJ‑45 ports for higher-than-gigabit access speeds. Configure Layer 3 settings, VLANs and PoE allocation through the Ubiquiti management interface according to site requirements. Monitor port status and power budgets to ensure reliable operation of attached PoE devices.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, plan PoE power budgets before connecting multiple high-power devices and use 10G SFP+ uplinks for aggregation to avoid bottlenecks; ensure appropriate cooling and rack space per manufacturer guidelines.
